The ice in Antarctica is melting three times faster than it did a decade ago, according to a study published in the journal Nature. The continent is now melting at such a rapid rate that scientists believe it will contribute at least six inches to rising sea levels. This could have catastrophic consequences on cities across the world if urgent action is not taken. The lead author of the study, Andrew Shepherd, stated “There are no other plausible signals to be driving this other than climate change.” To read more about the study, click the link in our bio. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀
